What to expect

Inspector Porfiry Petrovich Rostnikov is an honest policeman in a very dishonest post-Soviet Union. He and his team are searching for a serial killer who has claimed at least forty victims. And then there is the problem of protecting a visiting British journalist who is working on a story about a Moscow prostitution ring—in doing so Rostnikov and his team uncover a chain of murders that lead to a source too high to be held accountable if the police want to keep their jobs—or their lives.

Critics Review

“Put the three stories together, and readers have another Kaminsky
knockout.”

Booklist (starred review)

“Ironic humor lightens the somewhat grim life of the characters in this enthralling read.”
